You All Are Assholes

1 points by permille42 5 years ago

I tend to be very flamboyant in the way I post and respond to post. Despite this I try hard to communicate useful information and speculate on why people hold different beliefs and opinions on everything.

Despite this, I persistently get downvoted heavily just for expressing unpopular opinions. If you want to downvote me for being an ass, fine.

If you are downvoting me because you disagree with my opinions that is just childish and makes you an asshole. The amount of this I see on a daily basis from Hackers News comments is significant.

Please fucking stop downvoting people just because you disagree with them.

Downvoting for disagreement has always been allowed on HN.
